[It's finally here!] Printed screen protectors to cover "San Francisco" print

[Guest Fairlight2x]

Awaiting for your new design buddy :)

Sorry for the delay there, I have been trying other fonts, but it seems I struck gold first time with original font, which is called Tele Marines http://www.1001freefonts.com/TeleMarines.php

Keeping it simple, how about a outline version :

I'd love that if the font was colour #770000

Any chance of centered text with the Android boot up text logo

I don't think you can use that without conflicting with Google's marketing (there was a link previously in this thread) Using it would probably cost a hefty sum.

And I think plain black withe the word 'Blade' CENTRAL is the way forward :)

And a rainbow array of colours in every pack....

[Guest TCTUK]

What about a design that replicates the unbranded ZTE device like this?

[Guest blade_]

please made a prin with only the "android" logo

that will be the best

It'd look nicer if the text was in #A4C639 and didn't have a stroke outline.

Definitely interested in buying one. :)

[Guest isambard]

best would be one with no text/icon, imo.

Seems boring and would make the phone look generic, wouldn't it?

Plus, if you get Blade to look right(i was thinking a thin typeface; maybe geometric like Avant Garde or modern like Helvetica).

yes true :)

french version

[Guest esaitchkay]

I think it looks nicer in Android green, rather than the red. :)

I tried those typefaces, they all look virtually identical in upper case letters, the differences can only been seen in lower case.

I think I found the ZTE font, it is called Strasua. It seems they used a free font, as I downloaded it from 1001 fonts . Even though the font is free, we probably can't use it which is a shame as it offsets some other fonts nicely, like Avant Garde or Avenir etc.

Here's some different typefaces. The top right version is all Strasua. Top left Avant Garde, bottom left Federapolis, bottom right Galga.

[Guest That-Guy]

Would buy one if design was plain black or had the text "BLADE" or "ZTE" centred in the middle :)

Don't think I would pay more than £3 either as they are so easy to bugger up while applying!

eh? They look way different; maybe it's just me. lol.

how about you just set it in rainbow gradient comic sans? everyone will buy it :)

no but seriously, Federapolis looks the nicest out of those (apart from avant garde), but it would probably look better if it was left aligned.

plesae get rid of the glow; it's so gah. I think it should be slick, not glowy. Just my opinion :)

A crack at some centred ones using Avant Garde, Neutronium and Zero Hour fonts...

Thoughts?

Bottom left :)

[Guest That-Guy]

Bottom left :)

Yep bottom left!

[Guest technomonkey]

+1 bottom left looks good

[Guest cjbigboy]

Bottom left works for me! :)

[Guest TCTUK]

Bottom left :)

Since there has a been a lot of interest in the bottom left one... er the one below. The font used is ITC Avant Garde Gothic Pro. The 'ZTE' section uses an 'extra light' weight of the font. The 'BLADE' section is the standard weighting in oblique. If any of you are graphic designers or typographers you should already have it in your font folder, otherwise you can buy it online, the cost will vary depending on your morality :)

[Guest Respect]

Without colored android logo is the best one I've seen so far

[Guest esaitchkay]

hahahah :)

yep, I'm just waiting for it to get printed..

[Guest yanek18]

I would rather have word Blade than Android. I think the Android logotype looks horrible. Here is my design I knocked up in Photoshop. (I didn't design the font, it was a free one)

I would like to buy this one without android logo. Great job.

[Guest XpressAndy]

Does anyone care for the revised design? :)

Hey when would they be up for sale?

[Guest Mushroom_Lord]

Hey when would they be up for sale?

Well at the moment: its a bit baffling: we need to choose a design.

Once the most popular one is nominated, and he has blueprints for it, etc, It may go into production.

Maybe a Visual poll would be of use:

If everyone contributed nominated prints, we could have a post with pictures/details of them all.

This a poll, to see what people think suits the blade best.
